Jack the Giant Slayer (2013)

It’s unclear whether Warner Brothers was looking for a cinematic universe in its adventure fantasy film. Either way, audiences won’t be seeing a return from these characters anytime soon. Its production cost studios millions of dollars in reshoots and expensive visual effects.

The film competed with Disney’s Oz: The Great and Powerful – with experts suggesting the film lost ‘well over $100 million.’ It doesn’t look like this film would end happily ever after for Hollywood.
